Summit Lake Park

	Map		Reviews

At an elevation of 13,001 feet, scenic Summit Lake Park is the City and County of Denver's highest park.

Along Mount Evans Road, Colorado State Highway 5, Summit Lake Park is situated between the 14,264- foot peak of Mount Evans and the 10,600-foot Echo Lake Park, another Denver mountain park. Acquired by the City and County of Denver in 1924, Summit Lake Park is also part of the Denver Mountain Park system. Summit Lake Park's 160 acres are a natural botanical area. Tundra flowers, some of which have not been found anywhere else outside of the Arctic Circle, are found in the park. Echo Lake Lodge, a Denver concession at the entrance to the Mount Evans Road, offers restaurant services, souvenirs, and restrooms from May through September. Facilities in Summit Lake Park are scenery, natural botanical area, and fishing.
